Product description
The flagship stand-mount of the 700 S3 range and the only two-way to keep the Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top from the 800 family: a Decoupled Carbon Dome over a single 165 mm Continuum cone, with a rear Flowport and supplied bung. It's a high-end bookshelf that rewards good stands away from the wall in a small-to-mid room.
